Shower assembly with supporting arm
Abstract
A shower assembly with supporting arm has: a water inlet connected to the supporting arm and to a descending pipe; a switching valve body fixed and connected to the end of the pipe through an outer water inlet and having an outer and a inner water outlet connected to a ascending inner tube in the pipe; and an upper branch pipe fixed to the location of the water inlet and connected to the inner tube, of which the end has one or at least one upper water outlet, wherein the switching valve body has a valve core inside, which makes the pipe connected to the outer and the inner water outlet respectively or simultaneously. The switching valve body that is at the end of the pipe controls the current export from the upper and the outer water outlet beneath the switching valve body.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modifiedWhat is claimed is:
1. A shower assembly with supporting arm comprising:
a water inlet connected to the supporting arm and to a descending pipe;
a switching valve body fixed and connected to the end of said pipe through an outer water inlet and having an outer water outlet and a inner water outlet connected to a ascending inner tube in said pipe;
and an upper branch pipe fixed to the location of said water inlet and connected to said inner tube, of which the end has one or at least one upper water outlet;
wherein said switching valve body has a valve core inside, which makes said pipe connected to said outer water outlet and said inner water outlet respectively or simultaneously; from said water inlet, an intact current passage is formed through said pipe, outer water inlet, switching valve body, inner water outlet, inner tube and upper water outlet in turn.
2. A shower assembly with supporting arm according to claim 1 , wherein the cross-sectional area of said inner tube is less than the result of the cross-sectional area of said pipe minus the cross-sectional area of said inner tube.
3. A shower assembly with supporting arm according to claim 2 wherein said water inlet has the universal ball structure.
4. A shower assembly with supporting arm according to claim 3 , wherein said switching valve body has a fixed disk apparatus that can be fixed to the wall surface, and the connecting structure between the fixed disk and the wall surface could be adhesion, magnet, negative pressure or the combination of the three methods mentioned above.
5. A shower assembly with supporting arm according to claim 4 , wherein said fixed disk apparatus includes a universal ball structure.
6. A shower assembly with supporting arm according to any one of claim 1 , wherein the outer diameter of said upper branch pipe is identical to the outer diameter of said pipe at the position of said water inlet, and they all have smooth and continuous outside surface.
7. A shower assembly with supporting arm according to claim 6 , wherein said upper branch pipe extends upwards from said water outlet to height and there is at least one downward elbow at the end of said upper branch pipe, wherein a head shower is fixed at the end of the elbow.
8. A shower assembly with supporting arm according to claim 7 , wherein a tube is connected to the outer water outlet of said switching valve body, and a handheld shower is fixed and connected to another end of said tube.
9. A shower assembly with supporting arm according to claim 8 , wherein a slide bushing is mounted on said pipe, which has a shower seat used to splice said handheld shower.
10. A shower assembly with supporting arm according to claim 9 , wherein said valve core comprises:
a switching cavity connected to said outer water inlet, said inner water outlet and said outer water outlet;
a valve core axis reelingly interacted with the interior of said switching cavity, wherein a filler block reelingly blocking the current of said outer water inlet and/or said inner water outlet around said valve core axis is present;
a knob fixed to said valve core axis.
11. A shower assembly with supporting arm according to claim 10 , wherein the outer diameter of said upper branch pipe is identical to the outer diameter of said pipe at the position of said water inlet, and they all have smooth and continuous outside surface.
12. A shower assembly with supporting arm according to claim 11 , wherein said upper branch pipe extends upwards from said water outlet to height and there is at least one downward elbow at the end of said upper branch pipe, wherein a head shower is fixed at the end of the elbow.
13. A shower assembly with supporting arm according to claim 12 , wherein a tube is connected to the outer water outlet of said switching valve body, and a handheld shower is fixed and connected to another end of said tube.
14. A shower assembly with supporting arm according to claim 13 , wherein a slide bushing is mounted on said pipe, which has a shower seat used to splice said handheld shower.
15. A shower assembly with supporting arm according to claim 14 , wherein said valve core comprises:
a switching cavity connected to said outer water inlet, said inner water outlet and said outer water outlet;
a valve core axis reelingly interacted with the interior of said switching cavity, wherein a filler block reelingly blocking the current of said outer water inlet and/or said inner water outlet around said valve core axis is present;
a knob fixed to said valve core axis.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
